2.0 diesel dipstick-Tame Technician?

[Elroy Blue]

Spent ten minutes looking for the dipstick in my car the other day. It's a 2.0d 170 CR. Eventually discovered..it hasn't got one!!! The oil level is measured on the In-car display. Not very comfortable with that and wondered if I could get a dipstick.

There is a part number for the dipstick, but dealer is adamant that I can't buy one. Is it possible? Is there a blanking plug that can be removed?

I know it can be done with the 3.0d, but I can't get a definitive answer on the 2.0l.

I have the A5 2.7 TDI without the dipstick. I have traveled serious mileage 1100 miles in 21 hrs its 2 years old now and when checking the oil its as always been 99% accurate giving the amount i ahve used to top it up. I would not worry about it.
